SOME men in clamoring for railroad
legislation to prevent discrimination
in favor of long hauls don't seem to
think that n law endeavoring to lower
the rate on short hauls must raise the
rate on long hauls, by which all our
frcights come. A law without SEM
blance of jusice wouldn't stand; then
if il is such as will stand, it must aim
at fair, uniform rate, and as a rate
based on present charges on long
hauls would pay only small part OF
running expenses. The uniform rate,
then, must be one nearer the present
short haul prices; and it must be APP
parent to any one that a uniform per
mile rate on short hauls that would
Justify the roads would make tho long
hauls very expensive. a per mile rate
that would pay the railroads to haul
merchandise from Dallas TO Abilene
would raise the tariff on frcights from
New York, Philadelphia, California
ports, Chicago. and st. Louis, that 20
to 80 per cent. would have to be added
to the goods we buy freighted over
those long distances The Cullum-
Reagan bill may be benefit to Chi
cago, New York, Galveston and other
cities where water ways afford relief
when needed, but not for all. In fact,
while the HERALD doesn't pretend to
know much about railways, it is in
clined to believe that the railroad
lobbyists, which Mr.. Reagan says are
so numerous about Washington, are
not lobbying against his bill.

Indiana Democrats Take Possession
of the State Senate and
Organize 1t.

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. THE State
senate was organized to-day by Green
Clay Smith, president pro tenn of the
last senate, in violation of custom and
a law which provides that the auditor
of the State shall organize the senate.
The body was organized before the
new members, who are n majority
were sworn in. The Democratic ma
iority adopted resolution recog-
nizing and electing Green Clay Smith
as president of the senate. This was
done to compel Robertson. lieutenant
governor-elect, to secure the chair
next Monday, upon his term of office,
by quo warranto, If at all. The other
Democratic caucus nominees were
elected by 81 votes, the Republicans
declining to nominate candidates. The
scnate's action is supposed to be in the
interest of Gov. Gray as a candidate
for the United States senate. If Smith
cannot hold the line of succession to
the governorship then Gray cannot af-
ford to vacate. The house Republican
caucus nominees were elected. Nothing
of extraordinary interest occurred.

Southern State Bonds

NEW YORK, Jan. THE World
says the United States government
holds in trust for the benefit Of Indian
tribes bonds issued by the Southern
States, on which default has been
made to about half of the amount.
Some of the defaultcd securities are
held by private parties in this
city. L. /. Andrews, attorney
for certain New York holders
of the rcpudiatcd bonds, has writ
ten to Secretary Lamar urging that
the United States sue the deiauliing
states, claiming that the United States
has power TO brin' an action again' {
any of the repudiating states, while
private individuals cannot. Secretary
Lamar has referred the matter to At
torney General Garland. If the Unit
ed States should make TIE described
suits and win them. the individual
holders of bonds would profit along
with the government which now an
nually makes good to The Indians in-
tercst which these states refuse TO pay.

THE Brennan Banner, in comment
ing on the unjust insinuations of some
partizan papers who desire to make n
little capital against Gov. Ireland in
the senatorial contest, expresses the
utmost confidence in the integrity of
Gov. Ireland, but thinks n board of
pardons is what is needed. No doubt
any governor would be glad to be re-
lieved of the unpleasant and very re-
sponsible duty of having to hear and
consider all the appeals for mercy;
but so long as such trusted men as
Gov. Ireland and Gen. Ross occupy
the executive chair the public will feel
confident that the pardonipg power is
not being abused, no matter what
might be the difference of opinion as
TO the merits of each particular case.

A Cisco dispatch states that the
people of that town arc criticising
Col. Lanham for his silence in regard
to the proposed removal of the federal
court, from Graham to some more
central and accessible point in the dis
trict. Now, if the critics of Cisco will
but reflect moment they will certain
ly admit that these complaints are I'M
fair. Col. Lanham is unfortunately
situated in this regard. There are
Abilene, Cisco and Albany all candi-
dates for the location Of the court, and
each has its jealous advocates over the
district; while there are many (among
them possibly the congressman dis
interested people even in that district
who think that the permanent estab-
lishment of court in that new coun-
try should be while longer postpon-
ed tor further developments. 1t is
not especially the duty of Col.
Lanham, and he could not please all
should he have and express prefer
ence for one of the towns; so the ques-
ton is one which might be very
properly left to the judiciary commit
tee (the proper authority with such
information as may be before them.
Abilene is really the central and most
accessible place for the b, anch of the
Federal court for that section, and its
position and accessibility will COM
mend il for the Federal court of the
new district soon to be made in that
country.
